Mog Station is overpriced.

Where am I trying to convince people that they are "evil incarnate"? I'd thank you to please not take my statements to extreme hyperbole in an effort to support your own position.

ALL I've said is that FFXIV's cash shop offers a demonstrably worse deal than other MMOs that are F2P and B2P. That is a fact. I'm sorry you've played MMOs that are even worse cash shop price-wise, but that doesn't mean that FFXIV's is good.

Yet the fact you've seen two games with costumes that were cheaper than 13,50€ doesn't make the FFXIV cash shop bad.

First, because the majority of popular games' cash shops are more expensive, or WAY more expensive (not being the cheapest ever doesn't mean it's not on the cheap side in comparison). And second, because you simply decided to omit the price of the other costumes, as well as the fact that most of them could be obtained for free in-game.

The problem simply seems to be the fact that a cash shop even exists. It doesn't matter if it's helpful for the game to improve; it doesn't matter if the majority of costumes could be obtained for free, and it doesn't matter if the majority of costumes for sale are 10€ or less.

If I'm using hyperbole to support my own position, you are using convenient wording and half truths to demonize the FFXIV cash shop.
